Abstract:
A J-hook cable support (10) includes a semicircular saddle (12), a stem (30) at one side of the saddle, and a tip (90) at the other side of the saddle. The stem (30) includes protruding tabs (52,54,56,58) able to engage snap-on brackets (150,200) in order to engage structural parts, or to couple multiple cable supports together. The stem may have two pairs of tabs at different heights along the stem away from the saddle. The tabs may be bent pieces of the metal of the stem, bent toward the back of the stem, away from the cable-receiving area defined by the saddle. The snap-on brackets may include one or more pairs of notches (152,154,156,158) for engaging the tabs (52,54,56,58) of one or more of the cable supports. A wire retainer (88) may be used to close off the cable-receiving area, with the wire coupled to both the tip (90) and the stem (30).
